We stayed at Yaowana's condo for over a month and fully enjoyed the facilities and the local Thai culture. The very large pool and gym was used almost daily. The pool was enjoyable for us particularly as the sun is only beating down for the morning which allows both sun worshipers and shade lovers to pick there time to enjoy this lovely facility. The condo is an easy walk to 2 shopping centers that are located about 15 minutes away in either direction. There is a huge wet market about 10 minutes away where fruits, vegetables and meats can be purchased at local prices. The market also has restaurants and clothes for purchase. The MRT station is an easy 3 minute walk with a delicious pineapple merchant on the way. There are two 7-11s, one on each side of the condo. The unit is quite for good night sleeps and the security is present at all times. Within the building, laundry is available, both, paid for service and self service. There are also 2 coffee bars on the ground floor. The internet worked quite well.
We cooked several meals easily in the unit although with all of the eating options close by, we enjoyed purchasing meals.
The best part of the stay was dealing with the host. Yaowana is very helpful, friendly and accommodating person. She truly is a special lady and a delight to deal with. We hope to stay here again and again.
